Desperate to find her mother before it’s too late, Paula set off on a journey to discovery that will take her back to the past and into the deepest recesses of her heart. With the help of her ex lover, bird wine, and intrepid, an emotionally volatile private eye who still carries a torch for her, this brilliant woman, an expert at wrecking families, now has to figure out how to put one back together on her own.
